hmmm i have a foliage green manix 2 on the way and i may be trying to work out a deal for one of these puppies. i;m just not so sure about the g10 on the lock side. i've been really wanting a super stout knife around the 3" blade mark. but i wasnt sure if i wanted to shell out for that knife.

The G-10 on the lock side is just an overlay. The tianium on the locking side is a full length piece of ti just like on any other framelock folder. The G-10 actually appears to have a purpose other than appearance. On many framelock folders the pocket clip is installed so that it lays over the lock bar so you cannot push it too far over when disengaging the lock. With the Sibert MPR the G-10 overlay is positioned in such a way that it prevents you from pushing the lock too far to the left when you disengage it which prevents you from messing up the proper tension adjustment on the lock bar.

I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder just like it always has been..........I'm willing to bet Benchmade will worry about it all the way to the bank with this one for 2010.:D
 
For those who have it, how does it carry? it kinda seems it wouldnt be super comfortable?

Any opinons?
